The intended audience for this event includes:

Whether or not you place dental implants, having an understanding of bone grafting principles is essential in modern dental practice. Such understanding will improve treatment planning decision-making and better facilitate evidence based discussions with patients. The indications and clinical benefits of ridge preservation and minor bone grafting will be discussed; the overall aim being on improving clinical outcomes and reducing risk to both patients and practitioners.

For those clinicians with a surgical interest, a thorough understanding of biological principles, available biomaterials, and surgical techniques in bone grafting are fundamental for safe, predictable, and successful treatment. This workshop will include a hands-on session, allowing clinicians to practice both procedures under the guidance of Dr Wendy Gill. Learning is best when we can take you out of the normal environment into the beautiful world of Bunker Bay.

Workshop includes:
• Alveolar Ridge Preservation – Scientific evidence and Surgical Principles
• Options for managing partially edentulous sites – pre-extraction and post-extraction considerations
• Timing of implant placement (immediate/early/late) and influence on ridge preservation treatment planning
• Role of Biomaterials – Properties and Application
• Managing minor bony dehiscence and fenestration defects around implants – Classification, Principles, and Surgical Techniques

Hands-on exercises:
• Use of newly developed soft tissue models simulating practical procedures
• Flap design considerations – split thickness and full thickness
• Correct application of appropriate biomaterials for bone regeneration
• Achieving tension-free primary wound closure
• Suturing techniques

 

Please feel free to bring your loupes.
